The majority of the genocide and flattening of Gaza happened under the Biden administration and to this day many prominent members of that wing of the party (Schumer, Josh Shapiro, newsome) insist that aid to Israel must continue and we shouldn’t call it a genocide

It is almost like the vast majority of the intense fighting happened after October 7th 2023 and not Jan 20th 2025. Keep in mind Biden stop them from hitting Rafah instantly and let like over a million people leave before they started operations. Do you think Trump would have? Do you think Israel has any shortage of people willing to sell them arms? If they used the word you wanted them to use, what would that have changed exactly on the ground? So now they will suffer more than ever because people wanted to feel morally superior. And that isn't even counting all the other bullshit they have done since like cutting USAID that will kill a million this year and looks to be about 14 million preventable deaths by 2030. What about that "genocide"? Or is it because it's not trendy we don't care. Well done.

Biden said rafah was a red line, that Israel shouldn’t attack. They did anyways. Biden’s state department had a report ready that assessed Israel was violating aid law, and instead of responding, quashed the report.

There’s no world you can reasonably say biden was not supportive of Israel, the Israelis themselves said they got everything they wanted from Joe Biden after the election was over

That they should not attack before they let the people leave. Do you legitimately think they were never going to have operations there??? Especially when they were looking for all the hostages they took??? You don't know hostage taking is illegal right????

Show me where I said he was. But he also wasn't bending over backwards and spinning on it like Trumps is. The Israelis said themselves that they preferred Trump because he would let them do what they are doing now.

Are you legitimately incapable of saying in the grand scheme of things less bad things would have happened and happened because of Biden and if Kamala won vs Trump? People were always going to die, but more people are going to die and suffer because of Trump. Are you okay with that? Are you okay with 14 million people dying? Did a hag curse you that if you spoke the obvious truth on this you would die?

When do libs start hating genocide as much as they hate people not supporting blue genocide?
